Great product/color match,
i'm using replays for 6 functions. I would recommend as many switches as you can for; interior lights, running lights, rear leds, high idle mod, all gauges off,
i switch from fuel/coolant pressure & pre/post turbo egt's...

It will be something like this but with about 4"-6" of wire attached for you.

Probably the color matching...I would imagine that's the most labor-intensive part of the setup.

I believe it's because Ford charges so much more for that one versus the other.

Hey now Joe, I take a certain amount of pride in being a lazy ***, and I'm damned good at it!

One of these years I'll get my dash project finished.........I hope!

Stewart, looks like the manual version is cheaper than the auto version from Ford?

Huh, ok, I'll just go back to my corner and hush up now.

For some reason, that was how I remembered it.

Sorry for the bad info.

I have that one sitting in my garage waiting for me to decide what exactly I want to do with it. Got it from the same place, too.

If you had a diesel, you wouldn't have to think about it

Clay does great work from all reports I've read and here he is using top of the line components and color matching. If you want to roll your own, then Auto Nation White Bear Lake Ford Parts (formerly Tousley) has the part #4C4Z7004302BA for $59.60 PANEL ASY - INSTRUMENT TRIM | Genuine Ford | 4C4Z-7004302-BA But then you have to do all of the cutting, switch selection and custom engraving, wiring and color match painting. I am in the process of building mine currently and have been for quite some time (9 switches, 2 gauges, brake controller and 2 110V outlets), you have to weigh your time and talents vs when and how well done you want the dash.
I might just get the one for 60. The paint shop said he can color match me a can to die/paint it to match for 10 bucks. I do like the switches tho. And found a site that has pre cut switch panels that might fit perfect in there. Looks just like the one of riff
